hi guys,,, i meet a guy in maffra a few years ago ..... motorbike mechanic.. no help at all ..secret mens stuff type guy.. and rather than buy a starter gear kit with the spring etc.. he pulled off the right side plus theclutch set up and re-positioned the spring so that it put more pressure and made the gear mesh... i used it a couple of times checking it out on his xs650 and it seemed to work.. has anybody else done this at all regards oldbiker
